WORDS OF WISDOM.

That cannot be healthy condition In
which few prosper and the great mass
are drudges.
A proud man is seldom a grateful man,
for he never thinks that he gets as much
as he deserves.
A man must be excessively stupid, as
well as unCharitable, who believes there
Is no virtue but on his own side.
Real friendship is a slow grower, and
never thrives unless engTafted upon
stock of known and reciprocal merit.
Beauty is nothing else but a just &C.
cord and mutual harmony of the men,
bers, animated by healthy constitution.
A snob is that man or woman who is
always pretending to be something bet
ter-especially richer ormore fashionable
than they are.
None can love freedom heartily but
good men; the evil love not freedom,
but license, which never hath more scope
Or more indulgence than under tyrants.
Love, whether newly born or aroused
from a death-like slumber, must always
create a sunshine, filling the heart so full
of radiance, that it overfows upon the
outward world.
TO the untrue man the whole universe
is false-it shrinks to nothing in his
his grasp; and he himself, in as far as he
shows himself in false light, becomes
a shadow, or indeed ceases to exist.
A multitude of eyes will narrowly in.
spect every part of an eminent man, con-
slider him nicely in all views, and not be
a little pleased when they have taken
him in the worst and most disadvanta-
geOus lights.
A harmless hilarity and a buoyam
cheerfuness are not infrequent concomi.
tants of genius; and we are never more
deceived than when we mistake gravity
for greatness, solemnity for science and
pompOsity for erudition.
Many fortunes are received which il
ought to be the first business of the heir
to clean up, to purge. A curse must
rest upon any home where indulgence
of the love of the beautiful has been OBJ
tanned at the price of honor.

Children's Shoes

There never existed custom more oh
jectionable on the score of taste and
cleanliness than that of rigging up chill.
dren in white kid shoes. 1t has grown
obsolete with the better judgment of the
people, and we only now and then sec a
reminder of it. A shoe should be made

In some families shoes for children
that are denoted "best" are laid aside
and kept for full dress wear. This is a
mistaken notion. The feet of children
are constantly growing, and if the shoes

snug for comfort, and create pain and
possible deformities. 1t is better to LET
the youngsters have the good of the
shoes before they outgrow them. -Sho,

Preserving Eggs,

We do not believe there are any secret
methods of keeping eggs superior to
those published in the Farm journal
from time to time. For the benefit of
new subscribers, we repeat some OF
Them
1. Pack in salt, small end down, 81
that the eggs will not dissolve each
other.
2. Place in pickle made by dissolv
ing teaspoonful of salicylic acid in
gallon of boiling water. Use a stone or
wooden vessel and renew the liquor every
three months.
3. Stake two pounds of lime in hot
water, add one pint of salt and water
enough to make four gallons. Put the
clear liquor into stone jar and add fresh
eggs daily until nearly full. Put clean
cloth over the eggs and pour on this some
of the settings from the vessel in which
the lime was slaked. Always keep the
pickle above the eggs. BY using the
same proportions, sufficient pickle may
be made to keep any quantity of eggs.
A. The 'Havana Method" and Ger
man Process" which we presume are
zone and the same" is this: Water
twenty-four gallons, lime twelve pounds,
salt four pounds. Put twenty gallons of
clear pickle in whisky barrel. Pulver-
ize and dissolve in gallon of boiling
water five ounces each of baking soda,
cream tartar, saltpetre and borax, and one
ounce alum. Add to the pickle. Cover
with cloth and settings as in No. 3.
This will cover $50 dozen.
5. Take flowers of sulphur and enough
lamp-black to hide the color, put in an
iron vessel and set in one corner of an
air-tight box and place basket of eggs
in the same box. Set the compound on
fire, cover box tight and leave it so for
twelve hours. Those who like sulphured
FRUIT should try this method.
In all cases use strictly fresh eggs, ana
and be sure none of the shells arc
cracked.
1t is said, though we doubt it, that un
impregnatel eggs will keep indefinitely
without any preserving process being
used. Form Journal.

Egypt was famous for its chariots and
horsemen at very early period, but they
did not possess wheeled carriage of any
kind.
Long ago, when the Pharaohs built
vast pyramids for their sepulchres, the
horse was not known in Egypt; the ass
only was used, and wheels had not been
invented. The picture shows the kind
of vehicle in use more than 1000 years
before the birth of Christ. On such
simple contrivance as this the kings,
princes, and great people must have rid
den, until some gifted man invented a
wheel at each side of the seat. The
Egyptians appear never to have ridden
on horseback, but always in chariots. In
Solomons time chariots and horses were
exported from Egypt to Judga.
The war chariots had two wheels, ano
was furnished with culver and bow
case at each side, the quivers having
cases for two spears. Sometimes there
was an additional culver, and a mace and
battle-ax. Pharaoh's army was com,
posed of chariots and foot-soldiers. e

In Exile.

l see a flreside far away;

Since that time we have received informa-
ton that Avery Brown, 1.-THE Drummer
Boy of the Cumberland, lays claim to
being the youngest soldier and substan-
tiates his claim with undeniable facts.
Avery Brown was born at Delphos,
Allen county, Ohio, on September 20,
1859. On August 19, 1861, he was mus
tered into the United States service at
Camp Chase, Columbus Ohio, and Joined
Company c, Thirty-frst Ohio Volunteer
Infantry, First Brigade, Second Division,
Fourteenth Army Corps. His age there
fore, at muster, was eight years, eleven
months and thirteen days, which GER
tainly entities him to the distinction of
being the youngest enlisted soldier in the
civil war, His claim is conceded by all
other reputed claimants. At present Mr..
Brown resides at Elkhardt, Ind. He isa
marble-cutter by trade and musician of
no mean ability. He is highly respected
as a citizen and as member of the Grand
Army post, is generous to fault, and is
ever ready to lend his aid to all worthy
objects of charity, is genial, God fear
ing gentleman, and conducts himself
with the dignity becoming man of his
distinction and reputation as "The
Drummer Boy of the Cumberland"

Angney, convicted Of assault with intent TO
XIII J. ii. Wilmot and asked that an early
day he set for a hearing Of the certified

the prisoner, and opposed the setting OF
time. He stated that he had written to
Judge Chapman, his associate In the case,
and received telegram that he had written
on the subject, but the letter had not yet
been received.
Mr.. Worthington said that he was OPP
posed to delaying the hearing until next
fall. He understood that next week would
be the last in which the court would SIT
until the heated term had passed, and he
felt 1t to DO his duty, under the circum-
stances, to press for hearing before the
recess was entered upon.
The court let the matter go over until
to. day to permit Mr.. Smith to receive the
letter from Judge Chapman, at the same
time intimating that hearing should take
place ere the court closed for the summer
